Dog Walkers in Ridgewood Park, CA

About: We have a full house three humans and two fur babies. I am able to administer medications. I have a background in home sitting for families for their animals. Currently available for day time care, walk in visits, and dog walking. If you choose care for your dog with me or get your dog walked: As a family of four your pet will rarely be alone as there is always someone to provide them with the love and care they need while you are away. If I am coming to your home I look forward to giving your pet individual time and care. I do not take more than 2 pets at a time. This means no more than 4 dogs will be in my home at one time including my own. I let the animals roam inside the freely and they are taken outside frequently. Your fur baby will be treated like they’re apart of my own pet family. The animals will be cared for according to their unique and specific needs. I strive to maintain communication with all of my clients to ensure that their pet is cared for as they would be by their owner at home.

“Rio is amazing, was easily able to get acquainted and comfortable with my dog, and was very on top of communication. Will be continuing to work with Rio!”

About: I have been a pet sitter for about 3 years now! I started in high school and now do it while going to College online. I love taking care of animals especially dogs! I grew up always having a dog in the house ranging from puppies to senior dogs. I have experience walking dogs, giving them their medication, taking them on drives etc. Dogsitting has become kind of my part time job at this point, and I truly love it! I’m currently looking for a full time job, so my schedule is very open currently! I am open to dog walking, check ins, or possibly overnight stays! I am able to crate the pet when needed, administer food and medication, and any other accommodations it may need. As well as making sure the animal/s are happy and well taken care of.

“Wonderful experience working with Myah. Even let our puppies play together. Glad to connect.”

About: I have always had dogs in my life, I grew up on a ranch with an assortment of different breeds and sizes. I have two pups of my own, Goose is our Mastiff/St. Bernard puppy and Lady is my German Shepherd. They are both rescues, super energetic (but they also will leave other dogs alone if the dog doesn’t want to play), they love every dog under the sun. Growing up I have always had the joy of watching friends, family, and neighbors furry friends. When dogs stay with me you can expect they will have a great time, they have a giant yard/pool to run and play on and in, we also go on hikes in the forest or to the Lake, frequent trips to the park, and of course they will love to explore all that Mendocino County has to offer. What can I say, I love dogs and enjoy spending everyday taking care of them :) I hope to be the dog sitter for you I am a stay at home mom with my two kids, so it is very rare the pups are ever left alone. The only time I leave the house is to pick up my son from preschool 10 min down the road. Our back yard is completely fenced and I have two very friendly dogs that they will get to play with. I treat all dogs like my own so they always get the best care possible.

About: I’ve taken care of and loved animals my whole life. About 14 years ago though I went through the training myself to get my own dog trained and certified as a medical alert service animal and canine good citizen. I’ve continued my training journey ever since. 13 years ago I began my own dog daycare, walk and train in Fort Bragg Ca. 12 years ago we moved to Stockton Ca. where Good News Dogs thrived for 7 years. Specializing in pack walks, working dog exercise programs, balanced behavior tactics, safe socialization, basic obedience, boundary training and human pack leadership skills. I’m pleased to be back in Mendocino County and offering dog/cat sitting, dog walking and training. Let me know how I can help. I’m currently working other jobs but still have availability weekends and various hours during the week, we can find a time schedule wise that works for us all. I will care for your pet according to each pet’s specific needs and your instructions. Extra exercise, play time and I can crate them nightly if needed with an early morning release and first walk guarantee. I truly love animals and absolutely devote myself to their care and safety.

“Angelia was fantastic with my dog! Within just a few days, he was already looking forward to their walks. She is awesome to work with, and she even spent time with my cats. Will definitely book again!”

About: I have 10+ years of experience caring for and owning dogs, cats, iguanas, tortoises, and chickens, etc. ranging from high energy Doberman puppies to senior Staffordshire Bull Terrier dogs where daily medication was needed. Currently I own a Great Pyrenees named Winter. I have a range of experience with different animals and I'm always willing to learn more. I'm currently working part time, so I'll have plenty of time to check in, walk, or play with your pet. I'm available Monday through Sunday. I live in a 4 dog, 2 cat household. Our dogs are all crate trained. We have 1 Great Pyrenees, 2 Pitbulls, 1 McNabb mix and 2 cats. All get along great and play well with each other. They all get taken on daily walks since we have no fenced in yard. Everyone happy, healthy and loved.

About: I have two medium-large (60+ pound) poodles, so I’m used to wrangling larger dogs. Also, I’m pretty firm about walking dogs on leash for their protection. I work from home as a freelancer and set my own schedule, so I’ve got as much or as little time as I want to spend caring for pets. I like to learn about a pet’s preferences and approach them with care to build trust. At my own home I have a fenced yard and two energetic dogs to romp around with.

About: I have owned and cared for animals my entire life. I have experience with dogs, cats, bunnies and some livestock animals. Dogs are my favorite and I have had the most experience owning and caring for them. I’m experienced with all different kinds of breeds, temperament and age dogs. I always care for them like I would my own animals (spoiled! Lol). I am currently not accepting animals in my home but am happy to do drop ins, walks and house sitting. I work from home and have a lot of flexibility with my schedule. I am almost always home and pay attention to cues that dogs need attention or to the go outside. I have one dog who is treated like a family and spoiled like a prince. Animals are allowed on the couch and to sleep in bed if you desire. There is always plenty of fresh water, treats, toys and room to play.

About: Hello my name is Mark, making sure your pup is comfortable is extremely important to me. I assure you that they will receive the attention and room to explore that they need to enjoy their time with me. During my visit, you can expect your dog to: - Go on regular walks - Receive much needed attention - Enjoy other optional (with permission) activities like runs, hikes, and visits to lake - Get plenty of belly rubs! If you are interested in allowing me to care for your pup, I generally try to set up a meet and greet before the time of the stay. This allows me to observe how your dog will be with me, get us familiarized, and for you to tell me more about them. So let me know a good day and time you would like to arrange that! Here are other things I need to know about your dog: - Is he/she potty trained? - Anxieties or behavior issues - Medical issues or previous injuries - What your dog loves to do - Feeding schedules and amounts When I’m not walking your fur babies I am enjoying a fulfilling lifestyle with our 3 dogs, 4 cats and many chickens. It’s not work hanging out with dogs and cats all day just appreciating the beautiful outdoors together. I’ve found this to be true, “If you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life”. Just the wind blowing through the trees, peace and quiet and the occasional zoomiez parade of catch the leader from the dogs. My love and I had to give up quite a few things to be able to have the animals we now have. They are part of our family unit and each serve an integrated purpose in our lives and on our off grid adventure. I would like to open up my heart to you and your pups to put in the time and effort to show you that I have made room in my heart for you and your animals. I work part time and on call for a few different ventures as I was just able to return to working partially. I wear many hats Security/school district on call/catering help/ landscaping/ full time daddy/ now get paid to love on pets. I was a full time stay at home dad with young children previously. As they are checking off milestones I’m more available to spend more time with your fur babies. Currently I work Mondays and Tuesdays performing as a security professional. The rest of the week I’m flexible and open. I’m open to switching to more dog related or cat related care solely as spending time with animals is my passion. My utmost goal is to keep your beloved pet safe(period) taking caution to other dogs and environmental hazards. I will treat your fur babies as if they were my own and care for them and show them affection to their hearts content. “Trust” is such a vital component from all sides. You are entrusting me with someone that is so vital to your world that you would scour to find someone trustworthy to safeguard this very important part of your family. I understand as I have my own.

About: Hello! My name is Aubrey. I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have had pets ranging from the typical dog and cat to chickens and rabbits. I’ve also cared for a variety of farm animals including horses and cows! I worked as a stable hand at a ranch previously and got the opportunity to work with horses, pigs, chickens and turkeys on the daily. I love animals so much and will prioritize and treat yours as I would treat mine! I have been trained in animal CPR and have taken care of animals with various abilities. I am very interested in knowing everything about your pets and learning what they like and also things your pet really doesn’t like! I currently back to working full time so my availability for house sitting is not guaranteed but I’m able to do walks and drop ins if needed! If house sitting, I would check on, let out and walk/play as frequently as the day allows to ensure your pet will have ample time to use the bathroom and get their energy out! I will gladly send you pictures and video updates of your pet! I also am happy to play with them using their favorite toys, run, walk or hike with them and don't mind spending extra time for snuggle sessions while I'm there!

About: I am an animal lover...have had pets my whole life. I currently live with one cat. I will take good care of your babies and they will have fun. I can do short & multiple daily visits closer to my home, longer ones/overnights farther away, or they can stay with me. Discounts for longer housesitting stays. Further away areas may require covering transportation costs. I currently work part time, so I have lots of time to spend with your pet. Play time and cuddle time are essential. Let me know what activities your pet enjoys. I will be directly with your pet most of the time. Depending on what you request, our activities will vary. Will do my best to stick to your pets' schedule and routine. I will stick to pet routines as close as possible. Dog will be involved in my routine as well. If I go to the office, and its appropriate, they can come with me. We will spend as much time outside as we can. Lots of walks. May come to work with me if appropriate. We will take lots of pictures.
